Clark

Frawley

Byrnes

Evans

Nicholson

Strauss

Evans is contracted until the end of next year I'm pretty sure mate. But I agree with the others, and the addition of Blease, McKenzie (unsure of his contract status), Clisby and Tapscott imo.

Does anyone know of Roos' discards, who have gone onto become something? Terlich is a maybe isn't he and Hall left and still had worth at the Dogs, but i was thinking it's the kiss of death to be tossed by Roos? Also of those Roos has traded away, were there any big stuff ups? I'm thinking that some of these names bandied about here might seriously want to pull their fingers out soon as it's a bad black mark to have against your name.

Barry has just had his best couple of weeks - he won't go. Either will Blease but they should see if he's got any trade value. Think Tappy will be given more time too - coaches love hardness.

Clark (Ret)

Byrnes (Ret / not offered new contract)

Nicho - disposal / decision making not at AFL standard - turning into list clogger. Clisby ahead of him now.

McKenzie - trade / delist. I know he's a great soldier and clubman - but can't see him getting a game ahead of mitchie, kent, evans, toumpas, salem - disposal won't cut it.

Strauss - make or break year - out of excuses.

Frawley - if he decides to run.

Don't think they would make anymore than 5 changes.

Agree with most of these.

My take:

Tapscott- traded

Nicho- Delisted

Byrnes- either retired or delisted

Strauss- delisted

Blease- trade/delist

Mckenzie- trade table

maybe one or two young guys who will get the chop.

Don't think we'll get anything for Tapscott.

Anyway, back to the subject at hand...

There seems to be general consensus that Clark (obviously), Byrnes and Nicholson will go the way of all good things.

The latter two have 13 rounds to prove the doubters wrong, I guess?

If Pedersen can do it, so too can they.

If Byrnes gets another contract then we are a dumb club.

Posted (edited)

haha, my thoughts also exactly.

But they could go for pick 50 odd, which would be good.

Strauss and Blease might garner some attention....

I thought Straussy had something to offer, but Nev Jetta has almost shut that door on him...

Never underestimate the stupidity of other clubs' recruitment teams. I mean, Richmond wanted Shaun Hampson for a second rounder.

Pretty sure we can get some decent trades for Blease and Tappy rather just outright delist them.

Basically any player who hasn't been selected to play a senior game by the end of the season unless they are a first year player should be delisted.

He signed a three year deal. He's been cruelled by injury, but when he has had a run at it, he's not particularly impressive in any one area. There's a little bit of Bail in him, but he seems to be on the outer at the moment.

Definitely a 2 year deal

Mind you, I saw Schneider up close when he was with the International Rules team in Ireland, a year before he was traded to St Kilda. The rest of the team shunned him because he was an immature, obnoxious little pest.

Talented he may have been, but his character was highly questionable.

I think Straussy is a rookie option, after all this time.

I think Blease could get something around P45 ish, or maybe the P42 this year, or maybe the P50 ???

I would love for tapscott to give us something to earn a rookie spot, I just can't see it happening

These sorts of posts make me feel so old. I've seen this post 1000 times before. Different names but same content: every year some fresh faced poster wants to put the 38th-44th players on our list on the trade table.

The other clubs do not want our garbage any more than we want theirs. Nobody is going to trade anything worthwhile for Tapscott or Blease. Unless they have a miraculous change of form, their AFL careers are drawing to a close.

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the sweltering heat to bring you their Preseason Training observations from Gosch's Paddock on Monday morning. SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to

    A few new faces joined our veteran Demonland Trackwatchers on a beautiful morning out at Gosch's Paddock for another Preseason Training Session. BLWNBA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I arrived at around 1015 and the squad was already out on the track. The rehab group consisted of XL, McAdam, Melksham, Spargo and Sestan.

WAYNE WUSSELL'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Rehab: Lever, Spargo, McAdam, Lindsay, Brown Sinnema is excellent by foot and has a decent vertical leap. Windsor is training with the Defenders.

Demonland's own Whispering Jack was not in attendance but he kicked off proceedings with the following summary of all the Preseason Training action to date.

    Meggs' Review of Melbourne's AFLW Season 9 ... Congratulations first off to the North Melbourne Kangaroos on winning the 2024 AFLW Premiership. Roos Coach Darren Crocker has assembled a team chock-full of competitive and highly skilful players who outclassed the Brisbane Lions in the Grand Final to remain undefeated throughout Season 9. A huge achievement in what was a dominant season by North. For Melbourne fans, the season was unfortunately one of frustration and disappointment
